WILTON — Wilton Food Pantry's annual "Empty Bowls" fundraising event to help the hungry, take place from 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday at the Saratoga-Wilton Elks Lodge #161 on Route 9.

Each attendee can choose a unique handcrafted bowl or a produced bowl, fill it with a simple meal of soup, chili and bread, then take the bowl home after the event as a reminder of neighbors faced with empty bowls every week.

Advance tickets are $20 for a handcrafted bowl and $15 for a produced bowl at wiltonfoodpantry.org or at the three Wilton branches of Saratoga National Bank. Admission at the door (if available) will be $25/ $20. The 2013 Empty Bowls was a sold-out event, organizers said.
